Continuous Glucose Monitors Gain Popularity, Face Questions for Healthy Users

Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs)—small, quarter-size patches that track blood sugar every few minutes—have long been a lifesaver for the more than 38 million Americans living with diabetes. Last year’s FDA approval of over-the-counter models, priced around $100 a month, has sparked a surge in use among people without diabetes, driven in part by high-profile advocates like Casey Means.

Experts warn there’s scant evidence that healthy individuals benefit from 24/7 glucose data, and devices can be “notoriously inaccurate,” potentially encouraging the misinterpretation of normal post-meal blood sugar fluctuations. Clinicians urge prospective users to consider their motives and remember that CGMs are neither a diagnostic nor treatment tool for nondiabetic users.
